Q

What 5 things are evidence of the endosymbiotic theory

A
  1. mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA that is circular without proteins
  2. mitochondria and chloroplasts have different ribosomes
  3. mitochondria and chloroplasts reproduce individually of the cell by a process similar to binary fission
  4. mitochondria and chloroplasts have a double membrane (could have come from one prokaryote engulfing another)
  5. thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts resemble those of the photosynthetic membranes of cyanobacteria

Q

Why does yeast undergo anaerobic respiration in the absence of oxygen?

26
what does the temporal lobe do
recognition of auditory stimuli memory speech
27
what does the corpus callosum do
axons that connects the two hemispheres of the brain
28
what does the hippocampus do
associated with memory and learning
29
what are the parts of the limbic system
hypothalamus and hippocampus
30
what can't be found in the filtrate from the bowmans capsule
red blood cells and proteins
31
what causes rigor mortis
New ATP isn't formed so the myosin actin cross bridges can't be undone
32
What is CCK and what does it do
Cholecystokenin, a small intestine hormone produced in response to fats. It stimulates the gall bladder to release bile
33
what does secretin do
causes the pancrease to produce bicarbonate
34
what two structures form the placenta
chorion and endometrium
35
What is the difference between pluripotent cells and totipotent cells
pluripotent cells are stem cells that can form any of the three germ layers. they cannot however produce extraembryonic tissue like the placenta, so they can't develop into an entire organism totipotent cells are the calls that make up the morula and such, they can become an entire organism
36
How are totipotent cells created
from somatic cellst (they are reverted to totipotent cells)
37
All of the following are ways genetic variation can be introduced to bacteria
Heat shock with CaCl2 Electroporation Transduction Conjugation
38
What are the three types of animal movement
kinesis Taxis migration
39
What is kinesis (animal movement)
animal moves in a random direction, slowing down in favorable environments and speeding up in unfavorable ones
40
What is taxis (animal movement)
an animal moves in a specific direction due to a stimulus
41
What is migration
long distance movement of animals based on the season
42
who is the animal with the most fitness
the one with the most viable offspring
43
what is the definition of a boiling point
when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the surrounding pressure
44
what is volatility
the ability of a liquid to evaporate
45
what substances have the greatest volatitily
those with the weakest intermolecular forces
46
What is the formula for finding [H+] from a weak acid and Ka
[H+} = square root of Ka x M
47
what is cathodic protection
making a steel pipe the cathode, and something else like Zinc the anode so that the zinc dissolves and not the steel
48
Which molecular shape is characterized by having 3 bonding domains and 1 non-bonding domain?
trigonal pyrimidal
49
what is the difference of electron pair geometry and molecular geometry
molecular geometry just shows the shape of the molecules peices (don't show the electron pairs)
50
What gives the molecular geometry of a seesaw
4 groups and 1 electron pair
51
What gives the molecular geometry T-shaped
3 groups, 2 e- pairs
52
What gives the molecular geometry of octahedral
6 groups
53
What gives the molecular geometry of square pyrimidal
5 groups and 1 e- pair
54
What gives the molecular geometry of square planar
4 groups and 2 e- pairs
55
What are spectator ions
ions that don't change states in both sides of the equation
56
what are some rules to know for solubility
ammonium salts usually dissolve | halide salts usually dissolve
57
During a titration experiment, the titrant placed in...
a buret
58
what kind of addition does HBr (not HCl and HI) and H2O2 do
antimarkovnikov (free radical addition)
59
What kind of transition states do SN2 reactions create
a pentivalent TS
60
What is the difference between transition states and intermediates
transition states can't be isolated
61
Which of the following methods would MOST effectively separate two volatile compounds?
Gas-liquid chromatography
62
which can do more H bonding alcohols or carboxylic acids
carboxylic acids
63
What is the product of the reaction with toluene and 1. H2SO4, HNO3 2. Sn, HCL 3. anhydride and pyridine
1. Nitro group is added para to the methyl (it's a donating) 2. Sn, HCl converts the nitro group into an amine 3. anhydride is attacked by the amine at the carbonyl carbon, the other half leaves as a good leaving group
64
how are grignard reagents prepared
1. primary alcohol converted to a primary halide (PBr3) | 2. then you add a metal (Mg)
65
What is the major product of the following reaction? | secondary alcohol with 1. NaH 2. CH3Br
the alcohol is deprotonated, then alcohol then attacks the Alkyl halide (SN2) this is called williamson ether synthesis
66
What is the product of reacting a carboxylic acid with 1. H+, CH3OH, heat 2. CH3MgBr (excess) Et2O 3. H3O+
1. the carboxylic acid will be esterified 2. then the grignard will add two CH3's 3. the H3O+ will protonate the O- A tertiary alcohol is produced
67
rank the bonds from longest to shortest C--Br C--C C--H(triple bond)
That's the order because the molecules are the largest larger molecules = longer bonds
68
What is one thing to remember when determining stability of a resonance structure for benzene rings
the most stable form will often have the ring intact (maintaining aromaticity)
69
What does the log10 of 100 = | what does the log10 of 100000 =
2 5 (10^x)
